Comparison of earthquake source models for the 2011 Tohoku event using
tsunami simulations and near field observations

Additional figures and data sets

Follow the links below for additional figures and data sets that were used
to create them. Some data processing Python scripts are also included.

DART buoy observations and simulation from each source

Figure S1: DART plots. Observed and simulated response
at each DART buoy studied. Time is in seconds from
05:46:24 UTC on 11 March 2011.
The simulation is shown in two forms: unshifted
(with instantaneous seafloor deformation at t=0) and shifted by the optimal
time T_d as discussed in the text.

Inundation simulations

The K factor (after Aida, 1978) is regarded as a
correction factor to adjust the simulated tsunami so as to fit the actual
tsunami averaged over observation points in a site. For example, if the K
factor is greater than one, it suggests that the simulated tsunami was
smaller than the actual tsunami. The factor κ is defined as a measure of
the fluctuation in K. See figure for equations.
